In the following reaction, fill in the blank. Acid + Base → _______ + Water
Salt
A neutralisation reaction follows the general pattern: Acid + Base → Salt + Water. The \(H^+\) from the acid combines with \(OH^-\) from the base to give water, while the remaining cation of the base and anion of the acid form a salt.
Example: \(HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H_2O\). Hence the blank is Salt. Carbon dioxide forms only when acids react with carbonates; hydrogen gas evolves with active metals, not bases.
